    Tried both, since the latest big thunderbird update there isn’t much difference.

    I reverted to thunderbird due to the nicer icon.

    But thunderbird has a worse “plz donate” start page 🤔

      They need the money… Thunderbird doesn’t get any funding from Mozilla any more, now that it’s a separate community project. They’re relying entirely on user donations to keep the project alive.

    Well, this is my first time hearing Betterbird

    After reading their feature table https://www.betterbird.eu/#featuretable I think they have a really laudable goal.

    I’d suggest to check the feature table first. If there is anything you concern, you pick Betterbird. Otherwise, you can choose one randomly :)

    I tried Betterbird but didnt note a difference for my use. Went back to Thunderbird due to auto update vs manually downloading and installing.

    You can install both side by side so you can try them both.
